Change Table Design - TIMEOUT
May 21, 2007Hi...
I need to alter a table and change the length of one of my fields. I have a couple million rows in the database already and I am getting timeouts when I try to save it after changing the length of the field.
Is there any way to set the database timeout differently for a session in Management Studio.
I have set the Remote Query Timeout property to 0(Unlimited), but my session in SQL Mgmt Studio still gives me the timeout.
If there is no solution to this, can anyone think of something better than this....
SELECT * INTO temp from mytable
DELETE FROM mytable
(Modify Design of mytable)
INSERT INTO mytable SELECT * FROM temp
?
Well, thanks in advance for any help!

Date Formats In SQL 7
Jan 23, 2001Hi,
I am creating a VB application that will run on a NT machine with Regional Settings as UK English and dd/mm/yyyy settings. When I try to input these values into SQL 7.0 ( default database setting mdy and us_english with Regional Settings as UK dd/mm/yyyy) , I get the error -" The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value " .
Can I change my databse to always be dmy format. It seems to be active for a connection , can it be configured somewhere .
Any help will be greatly appreciated !

Good Ol` Date Formats And BCP
Oct 26, 1998Hey all,
I`m trying to BCP in some data from a csv file. It has dates formatted like d/mm/yy and when run BCP it errors. Of course...SQL language is set to English(United States) so it wants it in mm/dd/yy. But from what I`ve read in the archive, from Sharon at least, is that only in BCP will it use the NT date setting which for me is English(Australian) or d/mm/yy. So I`m thinking, `that`s ok` my data`s dates like d/mm/yy and nt dates like d/mm/yy it`ll bcp in fine - but no.
What can I do? I cant change my sql setting and I cant change the way I dump my dates to the csv! Suggestions......

I've declared a function (shown below) which convertsbetween these date formats and returns a varchar(20). This works finehowever now I need to have the ability to sort on this date field inthe frontend. This requires my function to return a datetime in therequired format. Can this be done?DECLARE @InputDate nvarchar(20)DECLARE @OutputDate nvarchar(20)DECLARE @Day nvarchar(2)DECLARE @Month nvarchar(2)DECLARE @Year nvarchar(4)DECLARE @Time nvarchar(12)SET @InputDate = '2005/03/01 14:30:00'SET @Day = cast(datepart(day,@InputDate) as nvarchar(2))SET @Month = cast(datepart(month,@InputDate) as nvarchar(2))SET @Year = cast(datepart(year,@InputDate) as nvarchar(4))SET @Time = substring(cast(@InputDate as nvarchar(23)),12,12)SET @OutputDate = replicate('0',2-len(@Day)) + @Day + '/' +replicate('0',2-len(@Month)) + @Month + '/' +@Year + ' ' + @TimeSELECT @OutputDate AS OutputDateThxVilen

Jan 18, 2008
Hi Folks
I have a SQL date problem that I just cant get to the bottom of.
A SSIS package runs that inserts dates into a SQL table from strings in the format dd/mm/yyyy
This package is run from within a SQL job.
Unfortunately the dates are being interpreted as mm/dd/yyyy. I have checked every possible date setting that I can, but nothing seems to work (SQL Agent account lang is set to British English, collations, Locale ID setting in the SSIS package, Lang of account that runs the SSIS service).
When the package is run in BIDS it inserts the dates correctly, just not from a SQL job.
I have tried inserting SET DATEFORMAT dmy in an Execute SQL Task in the SSIS package but that does not work either.
The baffling thing is that it works on one server but not another. Both servers have the same collation, regional settings and use the same SQL Agent account.
Also when SELECT @@Language is used is this determined by the lang setting against the user ?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I'm using 2 DB servers, with MS SQL Server 2000 on each of them, one for development and one for production.
When I want to query some information, filtered on a date in the WHERE clause, I have to use DATE = '<MM/DD/YYYY>' on the development machine, and DATE = '<DD/MM/YYYY>' on the production one, to get the result I want, and I can't figure out why (I'm just a lambda user).

Date Formats From OLE DB Source (SQL) To Flat File Destination

I am bring a date from a OLE DB Source (SQL Command) as [select cast(convert(varchar,getdate(),101) as varchar(10))] to a Flat File Destination (CSV File). The data in the source is show as "1/1/2007", which is how I need it to display in the file. The flat file defaults to showing the data as "1/1/2007 00:00:00." I did change the destination field to a String, and still, I geting the timestamp. I tried using a data conversion transformation, and I am getting bargage data when converting the date to a string.
Can any one give me insight on how to populate a date into a comma delimeted file as "1/1/2007", not "1/1/2007 00:00:00."

Transact SQL :: Changing Date Formats When Importing Data
Aug 9, 2015I’m retrieving Yahoo quotes into my database and have run into an issue when the dates sometimes change format in the csv file retrieved.
I am retrieving  yahoo quotes via powershell, then running a package to import data to my table. This generally works expect when the yahoo date format changes.
Â
In the yahoo csv file, the dates normally come through in dd/mm/yyyy format. I find when a quote is old the format changes to mm/dd/yyyy, just for that particular quote.
When this happens, the package fails because the quote date format does not match my destination table format. i.e. mm/dd/yyyy vs dd/mm/yyyy
Â
When this occurs, I would like to skip the records in mm/dd/yyyy format altogether and have the rest of the quotes imported.
Â
One approach I can think of is to import the dates as a text type and do some data validation / conversion once imported but it feels like adding unnecessary steps.
Is there some other way I can achieve this within the process I already have?

Design Question About Status And Expire Date
Jul 23, 2007I have a design question that I was hoping you all can help with.
When I normally design a table I always make sure to include a status field. This way I can "delete" a record without actually having to delete it, just update the record to a status which signifies deleted. This ensures my users have an undelete capability as well as safesguarding against the "mad clickers" which click right through the "You are deleting this record..." alerts.
I have been recently adding tables which have temporary records and are meant to expire at a certain date. I have designed these tables to have an expiration date field AND a status field.
My question is this: What is the normal convention relating to these types of records/tables? Should queries using these types of tables query them using the status AND the expiration date? Should you create a job that updates the records status based on the expiration date being passed. Should you use a view that only displays current records based on expiration date?
I just want to make sure Im following standard practice as I design these types of tables.
Thanks for your help!
Change Date To Int
May 21, 2008I want to convert "2007-01-27 14:13:01.223" to 20070127 (an integer representing the day). I could concatenate the calls to YEAR, MONTH DAY but then I would have to cater for the possibility that MONTH or DAY may return me one char instead of two; then I'll have to pad it manually.
Is there a shorter way to write such a query?

Jul 22, 2015Developing a Retail cube using SSAS 2012. One of the dimension is DimCustomer with SCD type II. Each Customer can be a member or a non-member over a period of time. We have StartDt and EndDt to reflect the membership status.
eg:
Joe is a member between 06-01-2014 and 31-08-2014
Joe is a non-member between 09-01-2014 and 01-31-2015
Joe is a member between 02-01-2015 and 04-30-2015
Joe is a non-member between 05-01-2015 and 12-31-9999
Without adding fact row of Joe for each day to reflect the membership status, I want to provide the ability to measure "Active Customers Count" on a given date. There are 2 million customers in the DimCustomer Table.
